Architectural Workshop is an annual event organised under the auspices of PAM! It gathers the architecture fraternity that comprise of students from various architecture schools in Malaysia as participants, with involment of academicians as advisors, guest speakers and panel judges.
The 21st Architectural Workshop Theme - R.u.m.i 2009!!
Derivatives of the RUMI theme are the following Malay words that are associated to the conception of architecture:
pengantara - to mediate
rangsangan minda - to simulate the mind; and
pengzahiran idea - to translate ideas into reality.
Rumi is the ROMANISED Malay language characters (abjad), carefully and intellectually composed. Inevitably, good writings are influential - they reveal silent thoughts and propogate ideas.
The relevance of the Workshop theme - RUMI lies in the capacity of the rumi alphabets to translate, mediate and eventually preserves or document ideas and experiences. This is liken to architecture and architects! An architect is an agent that translates and realises the hopes and aspirations of the client and society at large into a tangible physical entity.
